Why Choose E-Flute Corrugated
About E-Flute Corrugated
E-flute is the thinnest corrugated profile at 1.5mm, providing retail-quality print surfaces with corrugated protection. The standard material for UK branded mailer boxes and e-commerce packaging.
Smooth Print Surface
Fine flute spacing minimises washboarding for cleaner direct print. White and kraft liner options. Litho-lamination available for premium graphics.
The Retail Corrugated
E-flute is the thinnest standard corrugated profile at approximately 1.5mm. The fine flute structure creates a smoother outer surface than larger flutes, making it ideal for high-quality direct printing. E-flute bridges the gap between solid board and corrugated, offering cushioned protection with retail-grade print quality.
Print Surface Advantage
The small, closely-spaced flutes minimise the washboarding effect that larger flutes create on printed surfaces. E-flute reproduces graphics with clarity approaching solid board while providing the cushioning protection of corrugated construction. This makes it the preferred corrugated for branded mailer boxes and retail packaging.
Lightweight Postal Efficiency
E-flute's thin profile keeps packaging lightweight, reducing postal and courier costs. UK e-commerce brands favour E-flute for mailer boxes because it protects products during Royal Mail and courier transit while minimising dimensional weight charges.
